NBA Live 10 Demo Hands-On Preview

It was neither... he worked at some no-name place then got his own business. Pizza Hut was around since the late 50's and Domino's was founded in the 60's... John's far too young for either.

Aaaanyway, what a weird off-topic haha.

Nothing new in the feature set, holding b to bring up pick and roll?....2K. Right stick to influence layups?..2K again. I guess these things are new to live, but 2k has had these things for years. I better not hear how live is so great, when all the newness is copied from 2K

I don't understand what your point is...ok and? Who cares if it is or was in 2k?

And if those features make Live great, then Live is a great game. It's not a race to see who can get the features "first", lol. It's who can make a great basketball game.

Complaining about stuff like that is like complaining that this new car has 4 wheels, a 6speed transmission, and a supercharger. "OMG that was in so and so car first!!!" lol, so what.

Now by saying that, I will get live fanatics attacking me, I'm just giving my honest op. I play 2k way more than live, but I stay updated with what there doing. How the two shoot buttons didn't make it? Haha. It never was needed. Papa john created pizza hut and left and started his own company, he didn't just clone the pizza hut pizza...

You can kind of place that arguement the other way with 2K added in 82games.com which sounds like a version of NBA Live's Dynamic DNA, each company brings in something similar to each other, it's just going to happen because they are trying to make basketball as real as they can get it.

On the Fly coaching and Pressure defense has been in Live for years if I recall correctly.

But seriously I don't care if either was stolen or not.....if it improves the game then I'm all for it.

Hell to be honest i wish that guy (Mike Wang) i think is his name would steal all of 2k's animations while he's at it. I personally could give rats azzzz where it started 1st. I just want great game and i'll let you guys debate who stole what....

And while they are at it how about stealing some ideas from Inside Drive aswell....hell if your gonna be a thief you might aswell be the best thief you can be right?

You hear that the Eagles plan to use Mike Vick in a variation of the Wildcat offense, That is so not cool, The Miami Dolphins are the originators, No other team can use that. Eagles are rip off artists.............

[DirtyJerz32]

So I was watching some of the producer vids from Mike Wang and heard him say the demo is droping early Sept. Any word on when it's actually coming out?

[23]

They said an actual date... its like the 5th I think

[Tha_Kid]

I wish it was the 5th, but the IGN preview said the 10th. I remember because my 1-month XBL gold subscription runs out on the 7th (Silver members get a week delay on demos)
